Can antipsychotics worsen/create depression?

I mean giving antipsychotics to a depressed/non-depressed person who has no psychotic features

Well it Can but if there is no apparent psychotic history or present behavior then why would they be given anti-psychotics?


it really depends on the person though


Antisychotics are a group of drugs commonly but not exclusively used to treat psychosis, which is typified by schizophrenia.

why not give antidepressant instead of antipsychotics?
